Do opossum's have parental care

Yes, opossums exhibit parental care, particularly in the early stages of their young's lives. After giving birth, a mother opossum will carry her tiny, underdeveloped joeys in her pouch for about two to three months. Once they are too large for the pouch, the joeys continue to ride on their mother's back as she forages for food. This care helps ensure their survival until they are old enough to fend for themselves.
